Converting absolute to relative and vice versa is a very common requirement.
There really should be a standard tool for it, hmm....
Anyway here's a python script I use:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
                                                                                
import sys
                                                                                
prev=0
while 1:
    line = sys.stdin.readline()
    if line == '':
        break
    try:
        cur = float(line)
        print cur - prev
        prev = cur
    except:
        pass
